Guessing it means I don't get the chance of being unbanned seen as I can't even see the rule changes.

What about threads where people list a few items then a day later add more items, then next day more items again.
Is that not bumping?

Cool. I can now bump that silly MotorMouse I adverstised three months ago that, as expected, got zero interest.

Biohazard · 19 Nov 2010 at 12:02

Haha, is it about bumping?

Seriously MM = gay rules

No point in me even looking at it as i no longer have access to MM...thanks to an over zealous Don a few yrs ago :/

Yes, that will often be seen as disguised bumping.

Then isn't the ps3 games thread a disguised bump fest?

So to advertise those new items you would have to create a new thread to sell them?

iirc MM has a limit on active threads yes?

So are price drops considered disguised bumping too?

Still banned for bumping 3 minutes before the 24 hours were up.

Bumping has to be kept under control.

unless you are stealing the items to sell would most people now know in advance of creating the thread what games they had to sell?

I think i saw that one, thought that was harsh lol

pingwing · 19 Nov 2010 at 12:09

So to be clear, there is now only one post after your first post that effectively can not be about discussing selling the items in the original post?? Which implies that price update posts are no longer acceptable??

Good call on the clarification of the sale of vouchers though, needed a little clarification that we definitely can (need a pc copy of mafia in a few weeks)

Are these rules really needed? , i think the forum is great however this forum does have a really bad rep on the internet for hardline dictatorship rules. This including the RMA and customer service.

You want to support your customers and fanbase , it's what keeps you going

Priapus · 19 Nov 2010 at 12:10

Well I can't see the MM either as I was banned five years ago for some reason - never bothered to go back in there as I am no longer in the UK.

Do remember the rules being a bit gay though...

lcg · 19 Nov 2010 at 12:13

The rule changes are fair. Thanks for warning us about them

Hairybudda said:

If I've read this correctly, price drops are still okay, provided you drop the price at least 24 hours after your last price drop.

For now but they were fair before , what's next automatic ban's if you even think about bumping?.
